ELECTRIC FIELD STIMULATION DIRECTS TARGET-SPECIFIC AXON REGENERATION AND PARTIAL RESTORATION OF VISION AFTER OPTIC NERVE CRUSH INJURY.

Electric field stimulation directs target-specific axon regeneration and partial restoration of vision after optic nerve crush injury.

Failure of central nervous system (CNS) axons to regenerate after injury results in permanent disability.Several molecular neuro-protective and neuro-regenerative strategies have been proposed as potential treatments but do not provide the directional cues needed to direct target-specific axon regeneration.Here, we demonstrate that applying an exte
